Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of packaging equipment technology, specifically to a fully automatic moxa stick film packaging machine. Background Technology

[0002] Moxa sticks are cylindrical rolls made by wrapping moxa wool in cotton paper. They are mainly used for moxibustion.

[0003] To facilitate transportation and storage, moxa sticks are sometimes packaged in a film-coated manner, tightly binding several layers of moxa sticks into a single package. This requires the moxa sticks to be neatly arranged, but currently, automation in this area is low, and manual intervention is still largely required, resulting in inefficiency. Existing automated packaging equipment is slow in processing moxa sticks, especially in the sorting, film-coating, and boxing stages, where each stick needs to be processed individually, making batch processing impossible. Furthermore, the equipment has poor compatibility; some packaging equipment can only handle moxa sticks of specific sizes or shapes, failing to adapt to products of different specifications. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a fully automatic moxa stick film-coating and packaging machine that, through multi-module coordinated motion and precise positioning technology, can adapt to film-coating and packaging of moxa sticks of various specifications.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A fully automatic moxa stick film packaging machine includes: a U-shaped mold groove arranged in a straight line, a film supporting mechanism, a positioning baffle, a transverse heat sealing mechanism, an upper heat sealing mechanism and a lower heat sealing mechanism. A pusher assembly is provided above the U-shaped mold groove, and a longitudinal heat sealing mechanism and an automatic film feeding mechanism are provided above the film supporting mechanism.

[0007] Below the U-shaped mold groove, there are electric linear modules A and B, which drive the U-shaped mold groove and the pusher assembly to reciprocate; on one side of the film supporting mechanism, there is an electric linear module C, which drives the film supporting mechanism to move forward and backward.

[0008] Furthermore, the pusher assembly includes a pusher plate and a lifting cylinder, the lifting cylinder being mounted on the electric linear module B, and the pusher plate being mounted on the lifting cylinder.

[0009] The film-supporting mechanism consists of two parallel metal plates that open up the folded packaging film used for lamination, with the open end used for entering and exiting the U-shaped mold groove.

[0010] The lower part of the transverse heat sealing mechanism is provided with a waste suction port, and the waste suction port is provided with a suitable damper and telescopic cylinder.

[0011] Both the longitudinal heat sealing mechanism and the transverse heat sealing mechanism include a hot cutting blade; both the upper heat sealing mechanism and the lower heat sealing mechanism include multiple heating plates.

[0012] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this invention are as follows: This invention uses an automatic film feeding mechanism to thread a folded packaging film onto a film supporting mechanism. The two folded layers of film are then opened, and a longitudinal hot-cutting blade cuts the packaging film, sealing the ends. A U-shaped mold groove feeds the arranged moxa sticks into the film supporting mechanism. At this time, the film supporting mechanism retracts, and the packaging mold is placed on the U-shaped mold groove. The longitudinal hot-cutting blade then cuts the packaging film, and a bag-shaped packaging film is placed individually on the U-shaped mold groove. Simultaneously, a new packaging film is placed on the retracted film supporting mechanism. Then, a lifting cylinder lowers the pusher plate, pushing the moxa sticks out of the U-shaped mold groove until they hit the positioning baffle and stop. The transverse hot-cutting blade presses down, sealing the open end of the packaging film, cutting off excess waste film, and sucking it away from the waste suction port. Next, multiple heating plates clamp the six sides together, heat-shrinking the wrapped moxa sticks. This invention, through multi-module coordinated movement and precise positioning technology, is suitable for film packaging of moxa sticks of various specifications. Attached Figure Description

[0017] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0018] See Figure 1 A fully automatic moxa stick film packaging machine includes: a U-shaped mold groove 10, a film supporting mechanism 20, a positioning baffle 30, a transverse heat sealing mechanism 40, an upper heat sealing mechanism 50, and a lower heat sealing mechanism 60 arranged in a straight line on the frame. A pusher assembly is provided above the U-shaped mold groove 10, and a longitudinal heat sealing mechanism 80 and an automatic film feeding mechanism 90 are provided above the film supporting mechanism 20. A folded packaging film 91 is placed on the automatic film feeding mechanism.

[0019] Below the U-shaped mold channel, there are electric linear modules A 100 and B 101, which drive the U-shaped mold channel and the pusher assembly to reciprocate; on one side of the film supporting mechanism 20, there is an electric linear module C 102, which drives the film supporting mechanism to move forward and backward.

[0020] Specifically, the pusher assembly includes a pusher plate 71 and a lifting cylinder 72. The lifting cylinder is mounted on the electric linear module B, and the pusher plate is mounted on the lifting cylinder.

[0021] The film-supporting mechanism 20 consists of two parallel metal plates that support the folded packaging film 91 used for lamination, with the open end used for entering and exiting the U-shaped mold groove.

[0022] See Figure 4 Below the transverse heat sealing mechanism 40, there is a waste suction port 200, and at the waste suction port, there is a suitable damper 201 and a telescopic cylinder 202. The positioning baffle 30 is driven by the positioning plate lifting cylinder 31.

[0023] See Figure 2-3 Both the longitudinal heat sealing mechanism 80 and the transverse heat sealing mechanism 40 include a hot cutting blade; both the upper heat sealing mechanism 50 and the lower heat sealing mechanism 60 include multiple heating plates.

[0024] See Figure 2 The diagram illustrates the specific structure of an upper heat sealing mechanism: a fixed bracket 51 is mounted on a frame, an upper moving linear module 52 is set on the top of the fixed bracket 51, a transition plate 53 is connected to the upper moving linear module 52, a lifting guide cylinder 54 and a fixed plate 55 are arranged sequentially below the transition plate 53, a scraper cylinder 56 is set at the material receiving end of the bottom surface of the fixed plate 55, the scraper cylinder 56 is connected to a scraper 57, an upper heating plate 58 is set at the other end of the bottom surface of the fixed plate 55, and a front heating plate telescopic cylinder 581 and a rear heating plate 582 are respectively set at the front and rear ends of the upper heating plate for driving the front heating plate 580.

[0025] See Figure 3 A lower heating mechanism 60 includes a lower heating plate 61, a lower heating plate lifting cylinder 62, a right heating plate 63, a left heating plate 64, and a left heating plate telescopic cylinder 65.

[0026] In one implementation: First, the folded packaging film 91 is threaded onto the film-supporting mechanism 20 by the automatic film-feeding mechanism 90. The two folded layers of film are opened, and the longitudinal hot-cutting blade 81 cuts the packaging film, sealing the end. The film-supporting mechanism is pushed forward by the electric linear module C 102, and the entire film-supporting mechanism stops and waits after passing the longitudinal hot-cutting mechanism. At this time, the U-shaped mold channel, driven by the electric linear module A 100, feeds the sorted moxa sticks between the two metal plates of the film-supporting mechanism. Next, the film-supporting mechanism 20 retracts behind the longitudinal heat-sealing mechanism, and the packaging mold is fitted onto the U-shaped mold channel 10. At this time, the longitudinal hot-cutting blade 81 cuts the packaging film, and a bag-shaped packaging film is fitted onto the U-shaped mold channel. At the same time, a new packaging film is fitted onto the retracted film-supporting mechanism. Next, the pusher plate lifting cylinder 72 lowers the pusher plate 71, and then the electric linear module B 101 drives the pusher plate forward, pushing out the moxa stick on the U-shaped mold groove 10. At this time, the packaging film and the moxa stick move forward together along the mold groove until they hit the positioning baffle 30 and stop. At this time, the hot cutting blade 41 of the transverse heat sealing mechanism 40 presses down to seal the opening end of the packaging film, cut off the excess waste film, and suck it away by the waste suction port 200. Then the upper heat sealing mechanism 50 starts to operate. At this time, the lifting guide cylinder 54 presses down, the peeling plate cylinder 56 retracts, and the upper moving linear module 52 moves forward simultaneously with the peeling plate 57 and the upper heating plate 58, using the peeling plate to move the packaged moxa stick to the next station, stopping just as the packaged moxa stick is sent into the lower heat sealing mechanism 60. At this time, the upper and lower heating plates and the front, back, left and right heating plates operate simultaneously to clamp and heat shrink the packaged moxa stick. After the packaging film is tightened, the upper moving linear module continues to move forward and sends out the packaged moxa stick. At this point, one action process is completed, and then the moving electric linear module takes the whole thing back to the initial position to wait for the next work process, and so on.

[0027] This invention utilizes multi-module coordinated motion and precise positioning technology to adapt to the film packaging of moxa sticks of various specifications.
